Something We Can All Cheer!

Today we can celebrate a brief moment of national unity: We got Al-Zarqawi.

Congratulations to our brave troops on this achievement! This will be a significant blow to the foreign terrorists in Iraq. I hope the "treasure trove" of materials that were taken will help root out the rest of the Al Qaeda and their brethren in Iraq and elsewhere. For once Bush is being reasonably restrained in his reaction. He knows that this does not end the on-going sectarian civil violence in Iraq or the anti-US indigenous Iraqi insurgency, but it should be a big setback to the guys who actually attacked us in 2001.
